Students of St. Johns University, USA visit NMS

A group of 20 students from St. Johns University, USA visited our School with Mr. Gar Kellom, Executive Director for Leadership and Service at St. Johns University. The agenda of the visit was that students wanted to observe and analyze how schools in India function and many of them were keen on working with our school as volunteer teachers. According to the group, what they perceived prior to their visit was completely different from what they saw. Since this their first visit to India, they had not expected an Indian school to be so advance and well equipped in terms of infrastructure and amenities and also thought that we were on par with most of the good schools in the US. Many from the group showed keen interest in working with our school as volunteer teachers. They thought that teaching techniques that we follow here were very productive and practical and especially liked the concept of colorful display boards in classes. They were also highly appreciative of our efforts towards educating underprivileged girls at Nischay. All in all the students found this visit to be enlightening as it busted many whims and misconceptions and were eager to work with our school in the near future.
